Copied from a Portra1t SSo HearS Olds
 When Elihu Yale founded that time hon ored institution of learning, Yale College, he struck blow at ignorance that has rever- berated for more than two centuries through out the length and breadth of the land and placed his name in the foremost rank of Americas public benefactors. But a greater scourge than ignorance is now running rampant in our midst. Do you know what ails you when you have a dull headache; no appetite; nothing tastes good that you eat ]; specks pass before your eyes; low spirits; an irritable and peevish temper; bowels con- stipated; an appearance of red or white brick dust in the urine; a tired feeling and don't know what ails you? You have fallen victim to that modern scourge, MaEar5o. Nothing on this earth will tone you up so quickly and arrest the progress of Malaria as Lewis Red Jacket Bitters, the only sure cure for Dumb Ague, Chills and Fever, and all forms of Malaria Don't wait till you are on your back but begin at once the use of Lewis Red Jacket Bitters

How People Are Humbugaed.

Housekeepers cannot afford to use impure salt. Most of the salt in the market to-day contains chloride of magnesium, magnesia, clay ,and other insoluble matter which tends to retard digestion, thereby producing serious disorder of the stomach. Saltine is pure salt absolutely free from all adulteration, manufactured under special contract for the Saltine Co. of New Haven, Conn.,, and put up in convenient form for household use.

Pope was deceived as to the whereabouts of
Jackson's army. He was besides almost in
despair because re-enforcements which had
been surely promised him did not arrive. He
had depended for supplies on Washington,
and in any event ON those at Manassas juno
ton, which jackson had destroyed. Both
sources failed. II, however, Gen. Pope's
main army had reached Manassas junction

ated at West Point in 1887. He served both in
the Mexican and Florida wars but resigned from
the army and studied law. He held various of
fees in Virginia. Joined tue Confederate army in
the beginning of the war and commanded
brigade at Bull Run. At Gettysburg he was
brigadier general and commanded division. He
was engaged in the Shenandoah Valley cam
paign of 1864 He it was who made the daring
raid into Pennsylvania and set fire to Chambers
burg. After that, however, his star went down.
He was involved in a series of unfortunate de-
feas, first at the hands of Sheridan, then of Gus

came again a lawy er in Richmond.
At Cedar mountain Banks was not aware
that he had SO large force opposed
to him If he had known it, he could have
sent to Pope for re-enforcerents in time.
As it was, after a deadly fight of four hours
he was forced to retreat, the Confederate
army being twice as large as his own. So
sure was he that it was only Jacksons ad-
vance which engaged him that he parted his
whole division into two columns and charged
upon the massed Confederates. The charge
was so heavy that at first they fell back in
disorder At that moment StOnewall jackson

Pope's idea was to crush jackson by get
ting on his rear, between him and Thorough
fare Gap, with one portion of the Federal
army, McDowell's corps, while the other,
under Hooker, should attack him on the east,
coming from Centreville. At that time
Pope supposed jackson to be retreating back
through Thoroughfare Gap.
But jackson was not retreating. Long
street was close at hand ready to Join him.
Furthermore, Pope's own army had not
come to time as expected. Fitz John Porter
had been ordered TO join Hooker at Bristoe
Station on the Manassas Gap railroad. He
arrived six hours late. Meanwhile the same
day, Aug. 81, at Manassas Junction, seven
miles away, there was a hot skirmish. Some
New Jersey troops under Gen. Taylor had
been ordered to rescue the stores there. They
were driven off with half their officers killed
or wounded Gen. Taylor himself was
killed. AT Bristoe Station, the same day too,
Hooker made an attack on Ewell, who fell
back toward Jackson's main army, unpur-
sued

Jackson was master of the art of strategy
He started Ewell and Hill off northeast with
a noise and flourish, as if they were march

same time he put his main army swiftly and
quietly on the march back from Manassas
northward, in the direction in which he knew
Longstreet was advancing. Ewell and Hill
went as far northeast as Centrevile, within
twenty miles of Washington. Then they
suddenly turned west and rejoined Jackson's
army near the old battle field of Bull Rum
This was Aug. %.

ing first been promoted to be major general lie
died in 1850
Pope assumed his new duties with enthusi-
asm From the first he and Mcclellan diff
fered as to the conduct of the war before
Richmond. Pope especially opposed the re-
treat to the James, and thought that instead
the Armv of the Potomac should seek to re
treat by the north bank of the Chickahominy
and Hanover Court House. The differences
became serious At last both generals re-
ouested that commander in chief be ap-
pointed over them and over all the armies
This was done, and July % Gen. Henry W.
Hallcck became commander i'll chief of ell
the forces of the United States.
Pope, on taking command of the Virginia
army, announced that his headquarters
would be in the saddle. He further issued a
proclamation to the soldiers:
Il have come from the west" he told
them, "wnere weehave always seen the backs
of our enemies, from an army whose business
has been to seek the adversary and beat him
when found whose policy has been attack
and not defense"
Gen Pope issued orders from Washington
to his army, but did not join it in person till
the last of July.
The orders he issued have been criticised
severely. One required troops to subsist on
the country as far as was practicable. An
other declared that non-combatants in the
neighborhood of the army should be held re-
spOnSible for damage TO military property,
guerrilla attacks on soldiers, and all acts of
private hostility. A third bulletin ordered
that all the male inhabitants within the lines
of his army should take the oath of ale
glance TO the United States government.

There were three days battles on and near
the old Bull Run battle-ground. They oc-
CURED Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Aug.
2S, 20, 80. The first is properly called the
battle of Gainesville, the second that of
Groveton, the third and last, Manassas. The
last one is usually termed the second battle
of Bull Run"
At the first of the three fights, that of
Gainesville, the brigades Of Gibbon and
Doubleday suffered severely. They might
have been REINFORCED, as other brigades were
near them, but this was not done. The fight
ing continued until into the night.
At Washington, meantime, all was panic
and Ignorance. Halleck did not know where
Pope was, and nobody knew where the next
Confederate blow would fall, whether on
Pope's army, Washington or the Shenandoah
Valley. jackson himself was puzzled to
know what the Federal troops were about
When he fought the battle of Gainesville, he
seems to have believed Pope's army was in
full retreat for Washington, and that he had
a brush with the passing edge of it. All
was muddle on both sides.
